Michael Kors Handbags
 There are a few details that you can expect to find on Michael Kors handbags, including multiple pockets both inside and outside of the bag, decorative grommets, plentiful hardware, and chain designs. Michael D. Kors was born 1959 on Long Island, New York. As a designer, Michael Kors is known for his classic, chic, luxurious, but simple American sportswear and other clothing styles. One critic stated, "His clothes have never lost that clarity, that versatility, that American, self-possessed, no-brainer chic. His clothes for women...are cut with enough care to become more than basic. In his able hands, what are essentially staples become classics..." Michael Kors began designing clothes at the age of 19 and studied fashion design at the Fashion Institute of Technology. In 1981, Kors launched the Michael Kors' women's wear line at SaKs Fifth Avenue and Bergdorf Goodman. In 2002, Kors began designing menswear.
In 1997, Michael Kors was named the first women's ready-to-wear designer and creative director for the French fashion house Celine. Kors left in October, 2003 to concentrate on his own brands: the runway collection, MICHAEL, and KORS. Though still considered upscale, they are reasonably priced and more available to the public. The lines are sold in department stores such as Nordstrom's and Macy's. The MICHAEL line includes women's handbags and shoes, as well as ready-to-wear apparel. The KORS line contains footwear.
Michael Kors was awarded the Elle/Cadillac Fashion Award for Excellence in 1995. In addition, he has won two CFDA awards, the most prestigious award in the fashion industry. Among the celebrities who have worn Michael Kors' designs are Jennifer Lopez, Heidi Klum, and Catherine Zeta-Jones. Michael Kors handbags will go from a mini version of his Astor bag from $150, to a crocodile tote bag for $16,000.
